5. Use Some Rice Water

6. Try an Aqua Peel
Aqua peel is another recent skincare trend to have emerged in South Korea. The peel is designed to exfoliate your skin and clean your pores without leaving your skin dry. The peel contains an exfoliating gel and a skin vacuum that leaves your skin moisturised.
7. Go Off To Sleep With a Sleeping Pack
Use sleeping masks or packs to give your skin intense hydration overnight. Unlike other face masks, Korean sleep masks are created using natural lightweight ingredients that don’t need to be rinsed off after application.
8. Opt For Water-Based Gels
Ensuring that your skin stays hydrated all day is a key principle in Korean skincare. Unlike oil-based moisturisers, lightweight water-based formulas allow for better and longer-lasting hydration. Choose a liquid-care moisturiser that’s able to penetrate deep and fast into the skin, locking in moisture for over 24 hours.
9. Use Face Mist throughout the Day
Spritzing some face mist throughout the day will not only refresh your skin but also give a quick burst of hydration so your skin never feels dry. Skincare Tips: Know How to Take Care and Maintain Healthy Skin in Polluted Air.
